She says, ‘It is important that every actor is ready to bear some consequences for the right cause. In December 2018, a big producer had offered me a film, but its director was a Me Too accused, so I immediately rejected the film.
The director wanted to change the image
The actress further says, ‘Who is losing in all these things? My. I haven’t done any work for a long time. Last year too, a director from Kolkata had offered me a film, but for this very reason I rejected it. I felt that the director wanted to improve his image by using me.
Tanushree Dutta told, ‘Why did he come to me? They felt that it has been a long time since Me Too. Now if he casts me in his film, people will feel that I am on his side. I rejected the film. I also took suggestions from my dad so that I could understand things better.
